Macs Brewhouse and Bar

Theres a beer in New Zealand called Macs, and they use a really funky handrawn typeface on all their packaging. And they have a chain of bars around town that have really funky interiors. The main one near Auckland Quay uses upside down standard lamps hanging from the ceiling, and this one uses stacks of retro drawers and cabinets as a focal point behind the bar. Very cool.

Lovely New Zealand Signage

Here’s some quick pics of signs I’ve seen while out and about in Auckland. I find travelling so inspiring as you come into contact with so many new ideas, and trends that might not be in the Uk yet. I have my ideas notebook at the ready.

Nice Luggage labels - although my suitcase is a little bit more modern than this! And below a lovely interiors boutique in Newmarket, Auckland sold these fun wooden letters, and a 3-D Zinc version. Have scouted around for Zinc letters in the UK, but haven’t found a source as yet - will try gain though as these are gorgeous.

Happy Christmas

Well, I’m afarid thats it for the Online Christmas Advent. To be honest, if you haven’t brought your Christmas presents by now, your only chance it to rush down the shops and battle with the other last minute buyers. So I’m logging off to enjoy the festive period in peace! I hope all our customers and freinds have a lovely Christmas, and I’ll be back in a week or so from the other side of the world. Letterfest is taking a little holiday (well I am, Letterfest itself will still be open for business), and going to New Zealand for a couple of weeks. So I’ll be back with style tips and designs from the other side of the world. Happy Holidays!
